This was a little tricky at first, but once students got the hang of the activities they were extremely engaged.
Kathryn:
Thank you for the honest feedback. It made me think about how getting the students through some discomfort when doing something a little different or challenging can be a useful experience… but then I’m also really glad to know that as they persevered, they found success on the other side and that they were extremely engaged. I really appreciate you sharing.
Best,
David.
Great way to support students understanding character development through distance learning
Michelle:
Thank you for taking the time (and be the first) to review this resource. I'm pleased that it was a useful exercise to experientially teach character development. It always makes my day to read such feedback.
Be well,
David.
